Three years ago today my sister Kim lost her battle with colon cancer. Every year on the first weekend in August Katie and I get together to celebrate her life. We've done something new each year... something we know Kim would have loved. On Kim and Courtney's 1st Anniversary we camped as a family. So, this year we tried camping again. Katie, Rob, and Zeke journeyed down to Lake Red Rock. We had a great, relaxing weekend of wiggle cars, hobo pies, s'mores, walking, wrestling in the tent, and tattoos. The boys ran and played all weekend. They even found girlfriends from the neighboring campsite. Kim would have loved it, loved watching the cousins play, loved eating over the campfire.
I miss her everyday. We spent countless hours on the phone during the week and were together most weekends. No matter how many miles were between us, we'd always find a way to come together. I have a hole that cannot be filled. Katie and I do our best to remember and celebrate her.
She will always be my sister and our trifecta will always be minus one. Katie and I love you, Kim.
